Swanson Blackstrap Molasses - Natural Iron Supplement Promoting Healthy Skin - Premium Wellness Formula - (120 Capsules, 29mg Each)

Item arrived as described and on time.

I've been taking these for two months my iron was low. I can't tolerate many high dose iron supplements they give me racing heart beat and raise my blood pressure. This supplement is super easy on my stomach, caused me no constipation and raised my levels in a month. However, I'm going through perimenopause and I started to have periods twice a month so I'm raising my dose to two per day to see if that helps. Will update after labs in going to the hematologist. I should say total iron was up but TIBC was high and ferritin was 15 which was one point below range so even with all of that not too bad at all.

I can tell my energy levels have gone up with this product and it is easy on my stomach. I never experience any constipation like I have with other iron pills. I also used to buy iron complexes but this seems to help the best. I have taken this for over a year and I can really tell a difference! I take with vitamin c or a multivitamin that has vitamin c for best absorption.

I use an all called Cronometer to track nutrition.Check with your physician before supplementing.I use the app to determine & adjust daily supplements to come closer to meeting RDA.

I was hoping the iron in this was chelated like the combo of blackstrap molasses and chelated iron I used to take. I've had anemia all my life and the molasses and chelated iron helped. Did not notice the lift I normally get from taking it with this product.

I've always been super anemic, but any iron supplement I've tried in the past has made me extremely nauseous. It sucks, because I either have to deal with the symptoms of anemia or take supplements and feel like vomiting all day. My doctor never gave me options on the different forms of iron I could take and I didn't realize there were alternatives. I did a little research and came across these. I was hesitant, but I haven't experienced any sickness with these capsules and I've been taking them long enough to have brought my levels to a more normal range. Now that I'm pregnant, I purchase gummy prenatal vitamins (which don't have iron added) and take these as well. For the first time in my pregnancies, I'm not going through the severe morning sickness I had in the past. Yea me :)

I got burned from taking singular minerals like zinc for stomach issues. It caused my hair to go white because zinc is an antagonist to copper. Of course, learned this after the fact. Once I started to take this my white hairs went away. I like this because it is natural and all the co factors are there vs a singular mineral. One thing to note, I didn't take this for iron but took it for the copper. I think beef liver is a better choice for iron since its heme iron plus all the co factors. Non heme iron, from plants is less well absorbed than heme iron. But, good option for vegetarians. No digestive upset for me.
